Dating from the fifth century bce, two Phoenician anthropoid sarcophagi, a male and a female, found in Gadir (Cadiz, Spain), are so far the most ancient marble sculptures found in the Iberian Peninsula. The identification of the source of the marble used to produce them has been a subject of controversy for several decades and has recently resurfaced when it was published that they were made by Phoenician artisans using Iberian marble from Macael. This identification is not only unreasonable from an archaeological point of view but also unsupported by any analytical data. On the contrary, as the sarcophagi belong to an Eastern Mediterranean Sidonian production, their raw material is most likely to be Greek–Minor Asian in origin. In order to shed a light on this dispute and objectively resolve the provenance of the marble, a multi‐method analytical approach was carried out. Optical microscopy, cathodoluminescence analyses, and C and O stable isotopes clarify the provenance of the marble, confirming that both singular sarcophagi were carved in a Cycladic marble, in accordance with their Sidonian style.

解决加迪尔腓尼基类人猿石棺(西班牙加的斯)中使用的大理石来源的有争议的起源

可以追溯到公元前五世纪,是在加迪尔(西班牙加的斯)发现的两个腓尼基人形石棺,一公一母,是迄今为止在伊比利亚半岛发现的最古老的大理石雕塑。几十年来,对用于生产它们的大理石来源的鉴定一直是一个有争议的话题,并且最近有报道说,这是由腓尼基工匠使用Macael的伊比利亚大理石制成的。从考古学的角度来看,这种识别不仅是不合理的,而且没有任何分析数据的支持。相反,由于石棺属于东地中海西多尼亚人的生产地,因此其原料极有可能起源于希腊-小亚细亚。为了阐明这一争议并客观地解决大理石的出处,我们采用了一种多方法分析方法。
